Re: Dear Vanessa Franko Of The LA Times

I'm about 99% sure her editor makes that decision, not her. You should be asking the editor of her section. Usually writers have absolutely no control over the layout and design. That's the art department, and all final decisions go through the editor of the section.

More importantly, what chimp with access to photoshop would intentionally make a header that hideous? And why the fuck are they still on the LA Times payroll when there are a million perfectly competent graphic designers within a 30-mile radius?

Re: Dear Vanessa Franko Of The LA Times

Yeah seriously. Like, I'm not blaming Vanessa at all, in fact I feel like she's being wronged here because she's a pretty decent music journalist who covers Coachella well enough to not piss me off. But what the fuck is the story with that horrible graphic (it's not horrible because of you Vanessa, it's just a horrible graphic).

Also, if you would like to go out for moon pies and talk music and journalism sometime, I'm down, Vanessa.
